Yes, the
University of Lagos (UNILAG) has been releasing its 2025/2026 admission list, so there may still be a chance for some candidates, especially if you check the JAMB CAPS portal to see if your status has been updated to "Recommended" or "Admitted". Another way to get admitted is to consider other institutions, or if you already have a higher education qualification like a diploma or NCE, you could apply for Direct Entry (DE) into UNILAG or other universities. It's important to remember that not everyone will be admitted due to factors like not meeting cut-off marks or having the correct subject combination, and it's best to keep checking your admission status regularly.
What to do now

Check JAMB CAPS: Go to the JAMB CAPS portal regularly to see your admission status. A "Recommended" status means you have a good chance, and you should accept if your name appears on the admission list.
Check other schools: If you still haven't gained admission, check the lists of other universities that may still be releasing their admission lists.
Consider Direct Entry: If you have a relevant diploma, NCE, or A-levels, you can apply for Direct Entry to gain admission into the second year of a program at UNILAG or another university.
Apply for postgraduate studies: If you have a first degree and are interested in further education, the UNILAG Postgraduate School is accepting applications for the 2025/2026 academic year.
Improve for the next cycle: If none of the above options work, you can improve your performance in your next application cycle by ensuring you meet the departmental cut-off marks and have the correct subject combination.

Why you may not have been admitted yet

Cut-off marks: You may not have met the required cut-off mark for the course you applied for.
Subject combination: You might not have the correct subject combination required for the course.
Missing O'Level results: You may not have uploaded your O'Level results to the portal, which is a prerequisite for admission.
Course accreditation: The course you applied for may have lost its accreditation.
